I enjoy flawless logic, thanks for posting!

Has anyone noticed that Gretchen Carlson and her panel co-hosts of Faux News & Entertainment look and act so much like the characters on the old “Kukla, Fran, & Ollie Show” from the 1950s ( http://kukla.tv/ )?

Coincidence?

The American garbage can was emptied on Washington, DC, on Sept. 12th.

Rednecks, Christers, anarchists, revolutionaries, tax protesters, ignoramuses, militiamen, bat-shit crazies, and other lunatics.

Assembled from all parts of the country and revealed in this video as national idiots, propagandized and energized by the Glenn Becks, Sean Hannitys, Rush Limbaughs, and other right-wing, anti-administration rabble-rousers working for Fox News.

What a national embarrassment.

For example…

The pudgy Pillsbury Doughboy could giggle for ANYONE’S flour and pastry product.

The MGM lion could roar at the start of EVERY movie.

Ronald McDonald could manically cavort for Wendy’s, Burger King, Jack-in-the-Box, and any other burger joint.

And old Uncle Sam could be renamed and put to work as allegorical figurehead for any third-world country who wants to use him. Hey, doesn’t he stand for freedom and democracy everywhere?

Religious nutball Justice Scalia is furiously rationalizing his Christian/Catholic prejudices in this case, even if doing so crudely violates the Separation Clause of the U.S. Constitution.

It’s comforting to know that such a brilliant legal mind is tirelessly working to safeguard our Constitutional protection FROM religion.

NOT!

Be sure that ALL visible evidence — whether scientific, literary, or physical – that contradicts your Biblical record or claim of existence shall be inadmissible in any discussion questioning your purported works or existence.

Check!

“Three quarters of the American population literally believe in religious miracles. The numbers who believe in the devil, in resurrection, in God doing this and that — it’s astonishing. These numbers aren’t duplicated anywhere else in the industrial world. You’d have to maybe go to mosques in Iran or do a poll among old ladies in Sicily to get numbers like this. Yet this is the American population.”

That’s great for the rest of the U.S., but not for the kids of Sedalia. And here’s why…

The Sedalia school system will continue to turn out scientifically crippled graduates with no fully developed knowledge of evolution, which means that they will be unfit for many careers in the sciences such as medicine, pharmacology, biology, bacteriology, anthropology, and countless others.

Those jobs will go to the scientifically literate kids who graduate from more enlightened regions of the country. Their superior education will make them eligible for professional careers that offer a lifetime of greater income potential.

The scientifically illiterate losers from Sedalia will settle into the trades and small-business jobs that are the traditional career paths for people with lousy educations. Because they lack the fundamental scientific education necessary for dozens of better-paying careers.

And that is as it should be. Some kids will be winners. Some will be losers. Survival of the fittest, and future success, will depend on which group of graduates is better equipped to cope with a changing and more demanding job environment.

Think of the kids of Sedalia and their parents as unwitting participants in a gigantic social experiment in which modern evolutionary theory is being played out. What will it be for them, success or failure? What are the inescapable consequences of social Darwinism for the people of Sedalia too ignorant to recognize the consequences of their own crippling behavior?

Thanks to the scientific illiteracy of Sedalia and other areas of Missouri, and the scientific ignorance produced by other school districts in the U.S., the result will be pretty much as expected. Kids with better scientific educations will succeed in dozens of well-paying, professional careers that will forever be unavailable to the undereducated losers from school districts like Sedalia.

Isn’t it ironic for those who reject evolution that this is how social Darwinism always works?

Frighteningly misinformed.

Frighteningly dangerous to any hope we might have for true insurance and healthcare reform.

This woman is an educated and attractive nutcase, whose wildly inaccurate misreadings of public policies such as the Clinton healthcare proposal have in the past dealt deathblows to much-needed reform.

Now, she’s at it again, this time bent on crippling Obama’s plan.

Never a planner or advocate of anything helpful or positive. Only a hatchet-wielder for a right-wing think-tank (the Hudson Institute) hired to cripple progressive measures in voting rights, cancer care, and healthcare reform.

Conservative and Libertarian obstructionists for decades have loved her glamorously delivered but hopelessly mangled “analyses” and distorted criticisms of progressive reforms.

Her biography on Wikipedia lays bare her unvarnished and well-deserved reputation as a misguided zealot with a sharp talent for obsessively distorting and misinterpreting policy proposals she and her employer oppose.

The Betsy McCaughey of our time must have been whom Voltaire had in mind when he said, “To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you must also be well-mannered.”
